The New York State Thruway Authority is seeking bids through Dec. 23 for work on the Castleton Bridge over the Hudson River.

The steel will require abrasive blast-cleaning to a Near-White finish (SSPC-SP 10), and will be recoated with an organic zinc-rich system. Structural steel repair will also be required.

Contractors must be SSPC-QP 1 and QP 2 certified. Containment will be necessary for the abatement of lead-based coatings.

About the Structure

Also called Castleton-on-Hudson Bridge, the bridge crosses the Hudson River in Albany and Rensselaer Counties.

The bridge opened May 26, 1959, to complete the Berkshire Connector of the New York State Thruway, which connects to the Massachusetts Turnpike. The Castleton Bridge most recently received a multi-lane ramp update from Interstate 787 North to Interstate 90 as part of a $145 million project to rehabilitate the Patroon Island Bridge.
